This class-action was on the cards for a few years now. Interesting to see it finally ended up in the courts.
Wonder what will happen
My history was a new screen every 5000kms, with my last one only making 1200!
One of the main reasons for selling the vehicle, as well as never wanting to own it out of warranty
Great experience so far with Shitake in terms of screens - 15,000 km so far (9,000 of mine, as it was a demo). Have had a few stone strikes and it certainly seems more robust

There we go, sorry about the extra photo - no evidence of any stone chip, started as a 4cm random crack at LHS Wiper and spread as above. Cost about 150 quid all in even with insurance at Autoglass

Does the dealership offer/sell the windshield protection plan over in your part of the world?

In my case I get windscreen cover as part of my insurance package. I pay £25 towards a chip repair as i did a few days back and £115 towards a replacement if needed.

That looks like a stress crack not an impact
